According to the Midnight Oil website, lead singer Peter Garrett has left the band.  In a statement on the site Peter states, "The last 25 years have been incredibly fulfilling for me, and I leave with the greatest respect for the whole of Midnight Oil. The band has brought a lot of pleasure and meaning to people's lives, including my own. Who could ask for more? But it is time for me to move on and immerse myself in those things which are of deep concern to me and which I have been unable to fully apply myself up to now."  The remaining band members (Bones Hillman, Rob Hirst, Jim Moginie, Martin Rotsey and Gary Morris) do plan on making music together at some point in the future.
